Hrmm, can you install/remove other rpms? Try removing it with rpm -e -vvv xf86-corefonts That should print quite a bit of info about the process. Perhaps there is a problem with the rpm database? > I see that Jim Hayward has added a note to one of Michael Fratoni's > other posts that might explain the fonts not showing up.

You should be able to add the following line to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf (in the Font directory list portion near the top of the file) <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype</dir> Completely untested, but that's my understanding after a quick reading of the documentation. I would assume you need to reload the font server, and perhaps restart X before any change will be seen. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3} in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAj2aar4ACgkQn/07WoAb/StwIgCfVYjaJwj2gEYHrdy5pcBoGGDv qWcAoJlx8GX5ZqmoRMGikVhD11eWqXKz =7oFY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
